Wait, he hit his career longest Homerun tonight? That seemed like it would have been a double at Fenway. Single at worst… baseball is weird

I’m telling you, 470 isn’t making its way outta any MLB stadium. It’s the small stadium effect. Ugh

I always found that argument to be absurd last season. Vlad was putting up 95mph avg exit velo and somehow it was the stadium causing the stats.

470 feet in Canadian is about 110 feet in American. Keep that in mind when you’re making a big deal about Vlad.

Ha, this made me chuckle - thanks for that.

Balls don't go that far here in the USA, no matter a pro stadium, minor league stadium or little league field

Ah, so when they 470, they’re talking decimeters. Right, right…

Speaking of haters and their imaginary park factors, whatever happened to Numbnuts31? He just kinda slipped into the offseason, never to be heard from again.

I don’t understand how anyone feels they’ve “missed out”. Vlad prices are roughly the same as a year ago, and we now have the benefit of seeing him in action for that full season.

His cards are still affordable. Buyers can make the choice between some new junk wax release or a 2019 Vlad parallel very easily. For me, buying Vlad RCs (and even some second year cards) is the way to go.

Latest stretch as a guest of whatever county is unlucky enough to call him a resident, no doubt.

He literally has not logged in for over 5 months. Let's PLEASE not speak this into existence.

Some people are averse to fielding, but a RC is a RC to me. At least US1 isn’t sideways.

Thank you both. I have not traditionally bought cards in this price range, but this Vladdy was too sick to pass up. Also, same price as Apr 2021, so that's an easy bargain in my eyes.

Nice! And yes they seem to be rough. I pulled mine from a Target fat pack and it’s at best a 7. But it’s loved!
